We are pleased to announce that official Linux ANT support is now available for testing in the ANT Linux SDK beta package now available in the thisisant.com downloads section: https://www.thisisant.com/resources/ant-sdk-linux-beta-beta-release-for-customer-testing-and-feedback/

Please recognize that because this library is new and there are so many varieties of Linux that we haven't tested against we are releasing it as a beta release and request your feedback on anything that isn't working. Also note, the included libraries support using libusb based devices including the USB2 and USBm, but not SI based devices like the module dev boards.

We hope providing our official API on Linux helps you with your ANT projects!

Leave any feedback and questions in this thread. Thanks!

Is there any Linux support available for the SDK?      

Hi Team,

is there any update in Progress for the Linux SDK? Was already also asked some times in this thread…

Thanks and regards      

Hi Team,

could someone Help me with a hind how to disable the debug Messages wich occurs all the time during usage of the compiled DEMO_LIB?

Thanks and regards      

Does anyone know how to fix this problem when running 'make' in the DEMO_LIB folder? I'm running the SDK on Ubuntu 18.04      

Hi EdyzaIoT and everybody,

I am facing the same issue 'No keywords in input file !'. Were someone able to find a solution ?

I am already using the Managed library on Windows and want to port my app to Linux... Does someone has already build the Unmanaged_wrapper on linux (like for Windows) into an ANT_Wrapped_lib.so ? Because is would then be very easy for everybody to access ANT functionalities through C#...

Any update to this beta SDK? I just rewrite our application for ANT+ on Linux and wonder that will we ever get dynamic library on Linux.

Thanks.      

Anyone know how to troubleshoot this error? I am using a raspberry pi 3b+ with bullseye on it. Trying to get HR readout on the pi using a Polar OH1+ HRM and an ANT dongle. Followed the instructions, including modifications suggested to the code by Shane and tried to "make". I tried changing the LINKER_ARGUMENTS to both -lusb and -lusb-1.0 without success. Getting stuck at the exact same point. Thanks

I was able to resolve this by editing the makefile in the DEMO_LIB folder.

By default the linker arguments (LINKER_ARGUEMENTS) defined between lines 30 and 50 include the argument "-L$(ANTLIB_PATH)/gccDebug", by changing "gccDebug" to "gccRelease" the generated demo will use the the release versions of the libraries and not output these debug messages.

I assume there is a more elegant way to do this, perhaps using the libusb_set_debug() function but I have failed to do so.      

HI,
I'm trying to build the ANT_DLL: How I can do that? There is no the makefile inside the ANT_DLL directory.

Am I missing something?
     

hy all,
same error when compile and run make on folder DEMO_LIB

maybe someone can help about this issue
